Having suffered a frightening accident with a school bus, he was left debilitated for quite some time. He rose above and not only motivates customers to tone up and lose weight, but shows how anybody can make a difference in their own lives by making healthy choices.

I have had the tony little gazelle for a number of years. It is in the same shape as when I first bought it. You do have to tighten screws sometimes, especially when your givin-er on the machine, but it works perfectly fine. I find that I get bored on the machine fast, so I put music on to keep me focused or I watch tv, which takes my mind off of what I am doing. The monitor screen that tells you how much calories your burning etc, lasted for over a year. I now use a mio sport watch which works great to monitor my heart and calories, etc. Like any thing else if you do it consistently you will see results. Diets don't work!!! Sensible eating and exercise is the key, it always has been. Two thumbs up for Tony!! Oh by the way, I have lost in 2 years 140 pds and have kept it off by doing what I mentioned earlier. It took a while, but like I said be consistent, never give up, even if you don't feel like doing something one day, get back on the band-wagon the next day. You will see results!!!
I also bought Tony Little cheeks, sandals that are the most flip flops (without the noise) I have ever worn!! posted Aug 10th, 2008 8:07 pm
